Cannot sleep at the station anymore

[u/c00kieduster]

15 years in, company officer at a suburb dept of 4 stations, 100ish people, 48/96. We average 4-5 in a 24 hr period, sometimes 1-2, sometimes 12-16.

It’s not all that uncommon for us to get to sleep through the night. However, in the last year or 2, I simply cannot sleep through the night. Even without calls, I’m getting up 2-3 times. Usually it’s a toss and turn, occasionally I’ll get up to go to bathroom but that’s not the reason.

When I’m at home, my head hits the pillow and unless something wakes me up, I sleep like a baby.

Anyone experience this? Got any tips?

I can "sleep" at the fire house but I don't call it restful. And depending on how the day went and night, I might get home, go right upstairs, and PTFO for a few hours. We work 24s, I don't remember what the schedule is called but it's 24/48/24/96
